Journal ArticleDOI
WIYN Open Cluster Study. II. UBVRI CCD Photometry of the Open Cluster NGC 188
TL;DR: In this paper, high-precision UBVRI CCD photometry of the old open cluster NGC 188 was presented, where the color-magnitude diagram extends from near the red giant branch tip to as faint as 5 mag below the main-sequence turnoff.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extended main sequence turnoffs in intermediate-age star clusters: a correlation between turnoff width and early escape velocity
Paul Goudfrooij,Léo Girardi,Vera Kozhurina-Platais,Jason S. Kalirai,Jason S. Kalirai,Imants Platais,Thomas H. Puzia,M. Correnti,Alessandro Bressan,Rupali Chandar,Leandro Kerber,Paola Marigo,Stefano Rubele +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a color-magnitude diagram analysis of deep Hubble Space Telescope imaging of a mass-limited sample of 18 intermediate-age (1-2 Gyr old) star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds, including eight clusters for which new data were obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population Parameters of Intermediate-Age Star Clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud. II. New Insights from Extended Main Sequence Turnoffs in 7 Star Clusters
TL;DR: In this article, color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) with several different sets of theoretical isochrones were derived from high-resolution images of 7 intermediate-age (1-2 Gyr) star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Southern Proper Motion Program. II. A Catalog at the South Galactic Pole

TL;DR: The Yale/San Juan Southern Proper Motion (SPM) catalog as discussed by the authors provides positions, absolute proper motions, and photographic BV photometry for 58,880 objects at the South Galactic pole.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Search for Star Clusters from the HIPPARCOS Data
TL;DR: In this article, a search for nearby star clusters and associations using Hipparcos Catalogue data, restricting the sample to stars with parallaxes above 2 mas (d 500 pc).
